 Speaking softly is a power move 💪

Taleb actually said the same in one of those Antifragile series books. You get better quality listeners than those who just hear what's loudest. 
 I suppose its one of those things that genetics will force a person to figure out lest be left to the whims of the loud ones. 

I haven't read those books. Series title is interesting. I'll have to look into that 
 He calls it the Incerto because he's pretentious 😂 Antifragile is actually the third book. It's Fooled By Randomness, The Black Swan, Antifragile, and Skin in the Game. All of them are good 👌

You can even read it backwards, because Skin in the Game is the most developed form of his ideas on randomness and fragility. 
 Nice! Sounds right up my alley. I'll add it them to my list.
